Tabbed by: TalflickEmail: talek_cornish@hotmail.comTuning: Standard (EADGBe)Here's a kick at the can, cause none of the chords worked for me on this site so far,this song anyway. I once doubled rhythym guitar when a band was covering this, I made itpretty much, but it sounds alright if you play it along with The Essential B.O.C. Album. is my first tab so bear with me.

Intro : Rhythym fill...e|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|B|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|G|---2-0----0----0----0---2-0----0----0------------------------------------|D|--2------0----0----0---2------0----0-------------------------------------|A|-0------2----3----2---0------2----3--------------------------------------|E|-------3----1----3----------3----1---------------------------------------|That's the main rhythym. It took me a while to figure out, not sure about the 1 3 0 0,last 0 might be something else, but you can change that how you like. That's the littlebit. Once the drum fill comes in, hit a 'G' chord, something like.. 355433, from Bottom up.Then the structure looks like this:

AmGFGAmGGIt's really simple from then on in. You can double the rhythym line too, but if you're along, it's kinda tough to keep the thing going right.AmGFGAmGGAll our times have comeAmGFGAmGGHere but now they're goneF G Am (Am7 if you like it better, I do :P)Seasons don't fear the reaper(Am) FGAmFNor do the wind the sun or the rain (we can be like they are)GAmGFCome on baby (don't fear the reaper)(F) GAmGFBaby take my hand (don't fear the reaper)(F) GAmGFWe'll be able to fly (don't fear the reaper)(F) GAmGFGBaby I'm your manAmGFGAmGFGLa-la-la-la-laAmGFGAmGFGLa-la-la-la-laAmGFGAmGFGValentine is doneAmGFGAmGGHere but now they're goneFGAmAmRomeo and Juliet(Am) FGAmG (thats the F in the next line...)Are together in eternity (Romeo and Juliet)FGAmG(see above)40,000 men and women everyday (like Romeo and Juliet)FGAmGF40,000 men and women everyday (redefine happiness)FGAm (Am) GFAnother 40,000 coming everyday (we can be like they are)GAmGFCome on baby (don't fear the reaper)(F) GAmGFBaby take my hand (don't fear the reaper)(F) GAmGFWe'll be able to fly (don't fear the reaper)(F) GAmGFGBaby I'm your manAmGFGAmGFGLa-la-la-la-laAmGFGAmGFGLa-la-la-la-laAm (let ring & fade)(OK Kids, Here's the hard part. Wicked-ass solo, Tabbed in some other section. Thebackground chords, are something like this when they're in)F - G - Cm (?) - G - F - G - Cm (?) - G(I cant find anything better than that C minor, when you've got the full distortion on,sounds fine, but if you get a chord thats better, Please Email)Then it fades... and you get your Rhythym Fill again..AmGFGAmGFGAmGGLove of two is oneAmGFGAmGGHere but now they're goneF G Am G (Start doing all upstrokes until 'Come on')Came the last night of sadness(G) FGAmGAnd it was clear that she couldn't go on(G) FGAmGThen the door was open and the wind appeared(G) FGAmGThe candles blew out and disappeared(G) FGAmFThe curtains flew and then he appeared (saying don't be afraid)GAmGFCome on baby (and she had no fear)(F) GAmGF And she ran to him (then they started to fly)(F) GAmGFThey looked backwards and said goodbye (she had become like they are)(F) GAmGFShe had taken his hand (she had become like they are)GAmGFGCome on baby (don't fear the reaper)AmGFGAmGFGI love that bass riff at the end.Now, I don't know if the stupid chord things will work here on ultimate-guitar (Wheretab shall stay, if seen elsewhere, email talek_cornish@hotmail.com) Where you hover youand the chords appear.. so heres what I used..
